Welcome to the 2015 Summer Blogger Promo Tour hosted by the amazing Amber and Jessica of The Book Bratz. This is my second year participating and I can't be more excited to be participating.

Through the Summer Blogger Promo Tour, I got to meet the wonderful Pamela of A Writer's Tale. She is super sweet and has a very similar taste in books as me. I hope you go check out her blog because it is really great! Pamela is both a reader and a writer, something I can relate to. I asked her to do the Writer's Life Tag for my guest post. I hope you like her answer's as much as I do.

This one's tricky. It depends I guess. Sometimes, I'll be content with just the sound of people's muffled talking around me. Others, it can be one song over and over because it helps with a particular scene. *cough*Hey Mama*cough* And, for the record, the song doesn't have to be related to the scene's tone in any way!

3. Write Vice: What's your most debilitating distraction?

My blog. No, seriously. I always have this compulsion to checking my blog, and then I'll think: Hey, I need to write a review for 'x' book. And that's how it starts.

Well, not while, but some years ago, I wrote a Twilight fanfic. Yeah, quite Mary-sueish but well, with some work, I do think it'd have been amazing. Something happened to my work -which is public in a website- and now some chunks of it are missing. I didn't save it anywhere else. I guess I could write again, do it better. But I don't have the time. It makes me pretty sad.

5. Write Joy: What's the best thing that's ever happened while writing or how do you celebrate small victories?

Well, the best thing was finishing my first ever draft. It never made it to a complete, finished book. But the feeling of finishing that thing, of wrapping everything up, AT LAST, it was awesome.

6. Write Crew: Who do you communicate with or not communicate with while writing?

Does squealing at people count as communicating? Because I do that a lot if there's someone around while I'm writing, especially when working on scenes that have been in my head for a while.

"Because there are different kinds of nothing, and this was the kind you held on to for dear life or else you went insane."

That one is really sad, and I think it shows perfectly how hopeless my MC was feeling in that moment. It's not my main project, but this one phrase I remembered I really liked.

Have you done the Writer's Life Tag? If not you totally should! I am planning on doing it myself. I hope you go and check out Pamela's blog and some of the other posts apart of the Summer Blogger Promo Tour!
